ORANGE AND RED ONION SALAD



Orange and Red Onion Salad image

It's true-orange and onion really does sound like an unusual combination. But when my husband tasted Orange and Red Onion Salad for the first time, he told me, "This one's worth at least three kisses!" I serve this salad with chicken...it likely would go well with fish, too. Up until a short time ago, we lived in the San Joaquin Valley, where almonds, peaches and other crops thrive. Now-along with our 17-year-old son and 12-year-old daughter-we're settling into our new home in the foothills and getting used to seeing row crops and dairy cows instead.

ORANGE AND RED ONION SALAD



Orange and Red Onion Salad image

In Sicily, citrus fruits (agrumi) are enjoyed as a savory as well as a sweet, usually served between courses or at the end of a meal. A salad-called pirettu-is made from thick-skinned citrons (cedri). The green rind is peeled off, the center pulp is discarded, and the pith is sliced and dressed with salt, pepper, oil, and a pinch of sugar. Since fresh citrons are hard to find in America, here's another citrus salad popular in Sicily, especially in the winter months, when oranges are at their best. Customarily it is made with blood oranges-sanguine or tarocchi-and that's the way I like it best, though any small, juicy oranges will be delicious. Serve this in the Sicilian style, laying the rounds of orange and rings of red onion artfully on a platter with the dressing drizzled over, rather than tossing everything together. It is great as an appetizer, a refreshing end-of-the-meal salad, or an accompaniment to boiled or grilled meats.

Yield serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 or more small blood oranges or other oranges
1 medium red onion
1/2 teaspoon coarse sea salt or kosher salt, or to taste
Coarsely ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons best-quality extra-virgin olive oil, or to taste
1 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • With a sharp thin-bladed knife, shave off the peel and pith of each orange completely, exposing the flesh of the fruit. Slice the oranges into rounds about 1/3 inch thick (you'll have about 4 cups of slices in all). Handle them gently so they remain intact.
  • Peel the onion, and slice it into very thin rounds (about 1 1/2 cups in all).
  • Lay out the orange rounds on a serving platter prettily (I pile up all the broken pieces in the center, making a colorful mound). Separate the onion rings, and scatter all over the oranges.
  • Sprinkle the salt over the top. Grind lots of coarse pepper over the top. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of your best olive oil all over the top. Shower the parsley over all. And serve!
